Hi Brett,
The points you raise aren't specific to MG, but relevant nonetheless. How
do you trust ORM is a very interesting question, and i guess the best answer
is that to trust it you must first understand how, when and why it does what
it does. When moving from cfquery to ORM based applications its a big step,
I know that I spent many hours banging my head on the keyboard and more than
once gave up and went back to using Reactor because I just had to get things
done!
Your problem sounds very much like your entity isn't being saved, despite
calling ormflush. Difficult to say why without seeing some code. I find
that if in doubt (in fact always) use a transaction. In your Application.cfc
set this.ormsettings.flushatrequestend = false, then wrap any CRUD
operations in a transaction.
transaction {
p = getProductService().new();
p.setName(title);
p.setBrand(brand);
p.save();
}
As for debugging, i guess it depends on what you need. Best place to start
is to enable sql logging and there's a good article on that
here<http://coldfused.blogspot.com/2009/07/coldfusion-orm-how-to-log-sql.html>
